In light of the widespread Black Lives Matter protests, Americans are taking a deep look at police violence in the country. Many are demanding a complete transformation of our criminal justice system, tasking America’s leaders with delivering tangible policy.
This week, Alex Vitale(link is external) joins Julian Zelizer and Sam Wang to discuss the Kerner commission, the militarization of policing, and where the country goes from here. Vitale, author of “The End of Policing,(link is external)” explains the deep connection between police violence and racial inequality in America. The trio looks at why police departments are made to deal with homelessness, mental health issues, and medical care, and what could be ahead.

Your heart is in right place but until it moves from conversation to real action to look at the whole picture that all parties are human and victims. It will remain a part of society victimized by politicians. Transparency is almost impossible unless you exist on the inside to see the parts in really action.points well taken. To say we can do humanity a service that is just.with addressing the reality of the unpredictable factors and being able to react in the time of need. Good luck God bless

Oh i know, reduce internal police forces to small community groups and only large enough to quell minor uprisings or protests by using advanced crowd control technology, that way you also reduce the spread of small arms and combative training in the population of the controlled areas or "countries"
